PPCProfiles is a light weight today plugin, phone profile manager, designed for the Windows Pocket PC Phone Edition.

If it works as advertised, it doesn't sound like a bad deal for $5. [Affiliate]

Haven't had a chance to test it out much yet, but for 5 bucks it looks pretty good. It even has the ability to turn Bluetooth and headsets off and on. I did a review of PockeZenPhone awhile back which has a lot more functionality, but it can be rather flaky. I think this little app may be more suitable for most people's needs....looks cool!

What is really missing though is the ability to turn the phone off, and on.

HP profiles is a dll in th Windows directory that does the exact same thing.

I just put a shortcut to this dll in my Windows Menu and I'm good to go.

Hi Paragon, do you mean this is already possible and you're just wanting an app to make toggling it convenient? If so pray tell how to do it, I'm new to PPC PE and haven't figured it out yet :mrgreen:

Then again I suppose turning off the ringer is good enough for the most part?

Also, do you have a link to your PocketZenPhone review (or link to the app itself) handy? Everything for Phone Edition is mostly new to me... Thanks much!

It won't uninstall. Not the right application for me.
